Silken Thread – Adventure/Romance

An evocative adventure/love story from the author of The Illusion of Gravity.

In 1966 Manila, an American teenager courts a CIA recruit several years his senior. It’s a mismatch, a scandal. When she ships out, it’s over. Maybe.

An uncommon spin on the coming-of-age theme, informed by the author’s upbringing in mid-century Asia. Mature content, Young Adult appropriate. Value-positive, about good character as a strategy for creating a successful life. An immersive journey to a time and place now gone forever.

Early praise for Silken Thread from beta readers

Well done! Interesting characters, good plot, usually something new in the next chapter, "a real page turner" as they say on the book jackets. I am learning stuff too. A great and rare  combination in a book.
